Discovery of new inhibitor for the Protein Arginine Deiminase Type 4 (PAD4) by Rational Design of α-Enolase-derived Peptides

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an inflammatory autoimmune disease affecting about 0.5–1.0% of the world population. Protein arginine deiminase type 4 (PAD4) is believed to be responsible for the occurrence of RA by catalyzing citrullination of proteins. The citrullinated proteins act as autoantigens b...
